delicious week

Hi friends today has just finished the summer season in the coast of my country, I say this because I'm in my week off and I'm not in Cusco I'm in Lima the capital of my country. Cusco the city where I live is in the middle of the "Cordillera de los Andes " what we call "sierra", of curse there's no sea to see the sunset or sunrise.

for a change, what I did this week has been something nice and new, I did not know about delicious and I really like it, now I'm trying to link a lot of bookmarks I was saving in my "booknet agenda" that was the old way I was using to save interesting bookmarks.

I've also read about the CALL for speaking skills, nice and I'd like to share this piece of paragraph I took from the reading. "The CALL environment can serve as a self-teaching system that adjusts the level of the
task to fit the students' ability level. Using CALL, teachers can address different learning styles of their students through multimedia with pictures, sound, movies and texts offering different ways to deal with the same materials to suit various learning styles, which helps to personalize individual student's learning. In addition, in a normal teaching situation, it is impossible for teachers or native speakers to repeat a phrase without variation in its utterance or repeat as much as the students want them to.


Talking about the project I chose. It is a nice project very interesting and with similar characteristic to mine in terms of background. The project belongs to Adelayda Linares from Honduras. I agree with her objectives and especially with her suggestions I think they 're goin to be very helpful for my future project.


Interesting links to share

  1. Hey Harold!
    I guess it's the first time I'm commenting your blog and any of your tasks. I'm really surprised about what you have done in your blog. Mine is not that interesting.
    Nice to know you have a week off. Now you can work harder on our web-skills course.
    I'm really happy we all are learning this new stuff with Donna and sharing among us all these new tools, and technology.
    Keep in touch
